Lenihan's a Racist!
I see the Minister of State at the Department of Foreign Affairs, Conor Lenihan, has apologised after urging Socialist Party TD, Joe Higgins, who has campaigned on behalf of Turkish GAMA workers to 'stick with the kebabs'.
The comments were made this morning as Mr Higgins questioned the Taoiseach during Leaders' Questions about the future ownership of Aer Lingus.
Mr Higgins earlier condemened the comment as 'snide' and said it ill behoved the Minister to make comments in such a way.
The apology from Mr Lenihan is just not good enough. He must show some honour and class and resign. His comments were an absolute disgrace. Those workers have been paid a pittance for working around 80 hours a week and this Government has known all about what was going on. Only one TD is making an issue out of this and that's Joe Higgins and Mr Lenihan's response to this reality is to tell Mr Higgins to 'stick with the kebabs'. Despicable stuff.
Mr Lenihan why don't you stick that kind of gutter trash up your arse as you are a racist, ignorant little weasel of a man. Resign immediately!
